Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s long-awaited Russia report could be delivered to Attorney General William Barr as early as next week, CNN reports.

Once Mueller is finished, the report on his nearly two-year long probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election will be submitted to Barr at the Justice Department—who will then decide how much of the report should be shared with Congress and the public.

During his Senate confirmation hearing earlier this year, Barr told Congress that it’s “very important” that the results be shared with lawmakers and the public. “My goal will be to provide as much transparency as I can consistent with the law,” he said. “I can assure you that, where judgments are to be made by me, I will make those judgments based solely on the law and will let no personal, political, or other improper interests influence my decisions.”
